Hello. You did not submit the text to which this question refers. However, from the historic context, we can consider that "The Catholic Counter Reformation" is the correct answer. That's because, according to history, Louis XIV was an extremely Catholic king and he believed that his mission in life was to defend the Catholic religion and get wealth and servants for the church. For that, one of the main objectives of this king was to fight the protestant reform. For this, he wanted to conquer different territories and force the peoples of that region to convert to Catholicism and reject Protestant concepts. This goal is closely related to the goals of the Catholic counter-reform, which sought to combat Protestantism.
